of preserving privacy for the specified usage. In particular, we investigate the privacy transformation in the context of data mining applications like building classification and regression models. Second, our work improves on previous approaches by allowing more flexible generalizations for the data. Lastly

Maintaining Data Privacy in Association Rule Mining

by Shariq Rizvi, Jayant R. Haritsa - In Proceedings of the 28th VLDB Conference, Hong Kong , 2002
"... Data mining services require accurate input data for their results to be meaningful, but privacy concerns may influence users to provide spurious information. We investigate here, with respect to mining association rules, whether users can be encouraged to provide correct information by ensuri ..."

Looking at, looking up or keeping up with people?: Motives and use of Facebook

by Adam N. Joinson - In Proc. CHI 2008, ACM Press , 2008
"... This paper investigates the uses of social networking site Facebook, and the gratifications users derive from those uses. In the first study, 137 users generated words or phrases to describe how they used Facebook, and what they enjoyed about their use. These phrases were coded into 46 items which w ..."

Factor analysis identified seven unique uses and gratifications: social connection, shared identities, content, social investigation, social network surfing and status updating. User demographics, site visit patterns and the use of privacy settings were

Android permissions demystified

by Adrienne Porter Felt, Erika Chin, Steve Hanna, Dawn Song, David Wagner - In CCS’11
"... Android provides third-party applications with an extensive API that includes access to phone hardware, settings, and user data. Access to privacy- and security-relevant parts of the API is controlled with an install-time application permission system. We study Android applications to determine whet ..."

Providing Database as a Service

by Hakan Hacigumus, Bala Iyer, Sharad Mehrotra - In Proc. of ICDE , 2002
"... In this paper, we explore a new paradigm for data management in which a third party service provider hosts "database as a service" providing its customers seamless mechanisms to create, store, and access their databases at the host site. Such a model alleviates the need for organizations t ..."

to data, an infrastructure to guarantee data privacy, and user interface design for such a service. These issues are investigated in the study. We identify data privacy as a particularly vital problem and propose alternative solutions based on data encryption. This paper is meant as a challenges paper

Predicting tie strength with social media

by Eric Gilbert, Karrie Karahalios - In Proceedings of the Conferece on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI’09 , 2009
"... Social media treats all users the same: trusted friend or total stranger, with little or nothing in between. In reality, relationships fall everywhere along this spectrum, a topic social science has investigated for decades under the theme of tie strength. Our work bridges this gap between theory an ..."

Protecting privacy against location-based personal identification

by Claudio Bettini, X. Sean Wang, Sushil Jajodia - In 2nd VLDB Workshop SDM , 2005
"... Abstract. This paper presents a preliminary investigation on the privacy issues involved in the use of location-based services. It is argued that even if the user identity is not explicitly released to the service provider, the geo-localized history of user-requests can act as a quasi-identifier and ..."
